Debugging stepping in to built-in units like System or CRT?
lazarus / 12-Debugger

Hello,

In this Windows console application I was testing the debugger and
using F7, but it didn't trace in to things like "GotoXY(1,1)" it still
stepped over it.   Virtual Pascal which I am currently using traces
into the various units.  Is there an option to enable that in
Lazarus?  Also startup code / auto initialization code.

TIA!!

It requires an RTL compiled with debug info, and then it will trace
into anything, even implicit string copying. (which why it isn't
default).

You can probably build a complete system (FPC+Lazarus) with such
debugging use FPCDELUXE.
